Atrial Cardiomyopathy Predicts Worse Outcome in Patients With Lung Cancer

ABSTRACT:

Background

Reports of the clinical outcomes associated with the co-occurrence of atrial cardiomyopathy (ACM) and lung cancer (LC) are limited.

Objectives

This study aims to investigate the influence of ACM on the prognosis of LC patients and related clinical determinants.

Methods

Newly diagnosed LC patients from January 1st, 2015, to December 31st, 2020, were retrospectively enrolled at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University. The demographics and overall survival (OS) of the patients with or without ACM were compared. The survival rate was analyzed using the Kaplan–Meier method and multivariate Cox regression analysis.
